I agree completely. Back in 04 SWMBO & I were visiting her daughter in a large east coast city. Daughter was asst manager of a large grocery store. Hurricane hit while we were there, store was in dark for over a week. Names withheld to protect the innocent. Adding up spoiled/thrown out product, sanitizing coolers & freezers, state inspection before restocking, & loss of sales from being closed, the loss was a bit over a million in her store. I convinced her that there is a better way. A few years later she was promoted to store manager, now retired. When the next hurricane threatened she had reefer trailers brought in from dist center, & was ready to transfer perishable product in case power went out. Hired local trucking firm to switch trailer around as needed & tend to the reefers. More dumb luck than good sense, power stayed on, didn't need to do anything. Being a strong headed girl, she convinced the big wigs to let her install a generator as a test, just enough to keep her refrigeration running in case of blackout. They okayed going all the way, go big enough to stay open. Next bad storm they were in the dark about 15-30 seconds, just long enough for generator to kick in, only store in neighborhood that stayed open. No lost product, no lost sales from being closed, large decrease in insurance premium. Now all stores in that chain are being fitted with stand by generators. Willie

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
